The protests were organised online by a loosely formed, anonymous youth group calling itself “GenZ 212,“ using platforms including TikTok, Instagram and the gaming application Discord.
In Ait Amira, 560 km (350 miles) south of Rabat, demonstrators overturned and damaged several law enforcement vehicles and burned down a bank, footage shared by local media outlets showed.
Some cars were torched, and a group of protesters attempted to storm into a main supermarket, according to witnesses and videos shared online.
Protesters briefly chanted slogans, including “The people want an end to corruption,“ they said.
In Rabat, police arrested dozens of young people as they attempted to begin chanting slogans in a densely populated neighbourhood, a Reuters witness reported.
Hakim Saikuk, head of the AMDH section in Rabat, condemned the arrests as unconstitutional.
The government coalition issued a statement on Tuesday expressing willingness to engage in dialogue with youth “within institutions and public spaces to find realistic solutions”.
The interior ministry was not immediately available to comment on the incidents. - Reuters
